Billi Mucklow shows off her revenge body in carefree bikini snaps amid ex-husband Andy Carroll's relationship drama with Lou Teasdale
Billi Mucklow looked as though she didn't have a care in the world as she shared stunning new bikini snaps on Instagram on Sunday. The former Towie star, 37, has been showing off her revenge body on Instagram after her ex-husband Andy Carroll's relationship drama with girlfriend Lou Teasdale. Billi split from Andy, 36, last year after two years of marriage. The footballer quickly moved on from her with Lou, 41 - but earlier this week it was claimed they had sensationally split after a series of rows, with initial reports claiming the footballer dumped the make-up artist after becoming fed up with her high maintenance behaviour. Andy has since evealed he is back with Lou after Daily Mail exclusively revealed on Wednesday it was in fact Lou who called off the relationship. Proving she was having the best time on a recent family holiday, Billi uploaded some sizzling snaps to her socials on Sunday, ignoring her ex's latest drama. She has been spending some time in Spain with her children, letting her hair down for some much-needed family time. Billi and Andy have three children together - Arlo, Wolf, and Marvel Mae - and she also raises his two children Emilie Rose, 15, and Lucas, 14 from his past relationship. Oozing confidence and glamour in a fiery red bikini, Billi looked happier than ever as she posed up a storm. She was all smiles as she went barefoot for some gorgeous pictures during her getaway, which were taken by her daughter Marvel. Sharing how her day was going with fans, Billi simply wrote: 'Happy Sunday,' adding: 'By Marvel' with a camera emoji. Billi's ex Andy has now vowed to cut down on alcohol in a bid to save his relationship with Lou, after boozy rows as he confirmed the pair are trying 'to work through their difficulties'. He told The Sun on Sunday: 'I love Lou and I love her family. We row like any couple.' Referring to his divorce from Billi, Andy added: 'Things have been difficult for me and I'm going through a divorce. 'Some of our rows have been about alcohol, as Lou has been teetotal for 14 years and I have a beer or wine at dinner and a drink after the game, but it's not a problem in my life. 'We're better off together and we're trying to work through our difficulties.' The pair, who were together for just over a year, unfollowed each other on social media and Andy wiped all trace of Lou from his Instagram. They now follow each other on Instagram and have added their loved-up snaps back to their pages. On Wednesday, a source told the Daily Mail: 'It was Lou who ended her relationship with Andy, she walked away a few days ago, it was very much her choice to end their romance. 'She isn't interested in pointing the finger or blaming him and hoped to deal with their split in private, before he blocked her on Instagram and deleted their photos together. 'Lou is very upset by how everything has played out and the arguments between them were especially difficult for her to go through. 'However, Andy wants Lou back and flew to Ibiza via private jet on Tuesday just to find her, even though he has no idea where she's staying. 'He will think it's a romantic gesture but for Lou, she's unimpressed and just wants to be away with her family, she's not interested in any of his attempts at a reconciliation now. 'All she has done all year is love and support Andy, her feelings haven't gone away, but Lou has to protect herself now and ending the relationship is the only way to move forward.' The father-of-five returned to the UK with Dagenham & Redbridge last month after a two-year spell in France.

Dame Helen Mirren insists a woman playing James Bond 'wouldn't work' as she weighs in on female 007 debate
Dame Helen Mirren has declared that James Bond cannot be played by a woman as she insisted the famous spy is 'a bloke'. The acting legend, 80, weighed in on the speculation that the next person to take on the coveted role could be female, after Amazon MGM Studios took ownership of the hit franchise. Following Daniel Craig 's final appearance as 007 in 2021's No Time to Die, producers have been looking for the next star to take up the mantle. And while actors such as Aaron-Taylor Johnson, Theo James and Henry Cavill have emerged as the favourites to play the spy, actresses like Jodie Comer and Emilia Clarke have been mentioned as contenders to become the first female Bond. However, Dame Helen has firmly rejected the idea, insisting switching the sex of the iconic secret agent 'wouldn't work'. When asked whether it was time for a woman to take up the role, she was quoted by the Daily Star, as stating: 'No, it wouldn't work.' Following Daniel Craig 's final appearance as 007 in 2021's No Time to Die (pictured), producers have been looking for the next star to take up the mantle. She went on: 'There have been some amazing women who've worked in the secret services with incredible courage, but James Bond is a bloke. There's room for a great movie about a great female agent, but James Bond is James Bond.' Producers have confirmed a new Bond film is in development under Amazon MGM Studios, which took control of the franchise following a £770 million deal announced earlier this year. Helen joins multiple names who have spoken against the possibility of a lady Bond, including the franchise's producer Barbara Broccoli and previously Bonds, Daniel Craig and Pierce Brosnan. Daniel previously insisted that the iconic spy shouldn't be played by a female actress because they deserve their own roles that haven't been written for men. In an interview with Radio Times in 2021, the actor stated: 'There should simply be better parts for women and actors of colour. 'Why should a woman play James Bond when there should be a part just as good as James Bond, but for a woman?' Pierce has also shifted his position on the notion, after previously telling The Hollywood Reporter in 2019 that it was time to 'put a woman up there' and declaring a female Bond would be 'exciting' and 'exhilarating'. However, this year he made a sharp U-turn, telling Saga magazine: 'Oh, I think it has to be a man. 'I'm so excited to see the next man come on the stage and to see a whole new exuberance and life for this character. I adore the world of James Bond.' While Barbara has ruled out the possibility the amorous spy could ever be played by a woman, after previously declaring that 'anything is possible' when it came to the race and gender of future Bonds. In 2018, she sang a different tune, insisting: 'Bond is male. He's a male character. He was written as a male and I think he'll probably stay as a male. And that's fine. 'We don't have to turn male characters into women. Let's just create more female characters and make the story fit those female characters.' Halle Berry, who famously played beloved Bond girl Jinx in 2002's Die Another Day, has also opined that the British spy should only be played by a man. In 2017, she told Entertainment Tonight: 'That series is steeped in history... you know, Ian Fleming's stories. I don't think you can change Bond to a woman.' And when asked whether she herself would be interested in being the first lady Bond at this year's Cannes Film Festival jury press conference, she reiterated: 'I don't know if 007 should be a woman.' Fellow former Bond girl Gemma Arterton also weighed in on the notion of a female 007, declaring she felt it might not align with the franchise's tradition. The actress, who played Strawberry Fields in 2008's Quantum of Solace, told the Times last year: 'Isn't a female James Bond like Mary Poppins being played by a man? 'They talk about it, but I think people would find it too outrageous. Sometimes you just have to respect the tradition.'
